Parts of a Wave
100
Visible Light contains all the known.

This type of wave requires a medium for it to travel.
Sound waves
100
This type of wave can travel through space and does not require a medium.
Light Waves
100
When waves bounce off an object.
Reflection
100
The highest point of a wave.
Crest
200
The color of light reflected off of a red gummy bear.
Red
200
An echo is what for a sound wave.
Reflection
200
Refraction happens when light waves are.
Bent
200
The picture below shows an example of
Transmission
200
It is the part of a wave typically measured from crest to crest.
Wavelength
300
The color of light being absorbed by a yellow banana.
Every color other than Yellow
300
This state of matter is the best for transmitting sound waves.
Solids
300
Darker colored clothing will do a better job at.... light versus lighter colored clothing.
Absorbing
300
The reflection of sound waves off of a hard surface.
Echo
300
You calculate this measurement by counting crests of a wave as they pass a certain point.
Frequency
400
Different colors will have different sizes of this part of a wave.
Wavelengths
400
We are able to talk because vocal cords vibrate what in the air.
Atoms
400
Caused when some light is absorbed, and the rest is reflected.
Colors
400
When visible light hits an object. Some light is absorbed, and the rest is reflected off.

When you decrease the wavelength of a wave you will...

When visible light is split apart, like in a rainbow, it contains how many colors.
7 Colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet
500
In order for a sound wave to increase in volume, you must...
Increase the Amplitude
500
A scale system that orders light waves based on their wavelength.
Electro-Magnetic Spectrum
500
When you see a straw sitting in a cup of water. The straw will seem bent at the water line.
Refraction
500
The middle line that runs down the center of a wave graph.
